are you serious. I am not hiding, i'm just not playing the game anymore. This isn't RL don't you get it.
You can call me whatever the fluff you want, but i know what really happened this set with MGP and none of what happened did i really have a choice in.
I signed a FOP with an alliance that was the biggest in the game. Why? To gain some possible protection, given that small alliances get farmed the fluff out of themselves. Wrong move? Obviously. That stated alliance, signed with us knowing they were going to war, and knowing when they were going to war. EVERYONE in MGP knew we had an FOP with SOF. I made this known with one of the FIRST posts on our internal boards.
And it was posted a second time on our ALLIES post so every member knew who we had pacted with... there was no hiding. I ran 1 fluffing country. fluff hits the fan, FOP 's delcare and go to war and our FOP called us on our pact. Whether they want to ever admin it or not, i have the logs we had a FOP. And they called me on it, saying a deal is a deal.
You can troll this to all hell i don't mind at all. I went from spending 2 hours a day on this game recruiting, chatting trying to get pacts, trying to help with strats for our new players blah blah and trying to make a positive impact on this game. I had even let our FOP pacts know we WERE NOT in a positive to HIT. We were planning on later in the set causing some damage. This was proved with my country strat teching out agri 200k etc etc with minimal military. This was advised to our allies, that any FS now would be embarrasing, and were told who cares a deal is a deal. So i had to stick with my word and declare on EVo.
There was really no choice in it for us. Some MGP members knew the pacts, then when fluff hit the fan they detagged. So be it. It was discussed on our forum with an official apology from me that i should have never pacted the side we pacted, or i should say the specific alliance they way we did. We SHOULD of remained neutral and risked getting farmed this set again.
Either way i tried to do what was best for MGP. I had no agenda, i did not hide ANYTHING from ANYONE. I also posted on the forums, after the other posts about everyone leaving, the tag was disbanding. I didn't tag up. The tag had decided to disband. Members had contacted other tags. Xelah you noob. How can you say that i disbanned my tag, when you were contacting one of our members to tag over so you knew members were moving... enough mate.
Troll, spin, fluff your wangs out, do whatever you do in the game to make yourself sleep better at night i really don't care.
Truth is i was addicted to this game, I loved it. I loved that it had no images, it was text and there is strategy. I was passionate about starting an alliance from scratch, i put in the hours, i choose NOT to recruit from existing tags... so i got the bottom of the barrel new players and multies... i got burnt and burnt for doing it, PUBLICALLY!!! and i still kept playing. Through all of that we got farmed, set after set after set. i still kept playing, putting in the hours..
To finally recruit a good 10 players who could actually play / net top 10 players, to also sign a good pact with the largest alliance... to then be played into war and now we've disbanded and been tag killed.
Judge me all you like, i have NEVER tried to hurt, discriminate, make fun of, piss anyone off intentionally. The only person who i actually don't get along with is anonom and thats because i can actually see his virtual ego on the other side of the world. He is the only person i have tried to get along with, PM to make things better and he has no bar of it. Whatever who really cares anymore.
I had a goal of stating an alliance form scratch and was prepared to put in all the hours day in day out to make that happen. I recruited like no other one before, and i'm dam good at it. Yes i can only make a 20m nw country ( without farming ) but i dont care. I got a good way along, and seeing now how the politics works with someon people makes me think it might not be worth it at the top...
Enjoy, troll, whatever please at my expense. Everyone is so quick here to crucify someone for any wrong doing.. and i guess thats the role this board plays. I love this game, and I am genuinely disappointed... Sorry to anyone i have offended, upset, i know how much this game takes up in RL time for some, and i didn't mean any disrespect. I do love the game.
